That’s sad indeed. I wonder whether they could do their work online these days? Online confession or online speeches … May not be exactly the same, but would be a way to continue their work without risk.

I hope they don’t do that (walking barefoot in dirt) since now we have various ticks that are all over the world biting and making children and adults very sick.
We have now the Deer tick that has caused paralysis and even death.
Diseases Spread by TicksLyme disease** - is a bacterial infection caused by the bite of an infected deer tick. Anaplasmosis and Erhlichioisis - are tick-borne diseases caused by two different bacteria transmitted by the bite of a tick. The lone star tick causes erhlichiosis and the deer tick causes anaplasmosis.
Agent. Babesiosis is a disease caused by parasites that infect red blood cells . Most U.S. cases are caused by B. microti, which is transmitted mainly by Ixodes scapularis ticks, primarily in the Northeast and Upper Midwest and sporadically on the West Coast.

I didn’t know ticks are also in soil or on soil, I thought they were on branches of trees and shrubs. I always took a mix of vinegar and essential oil of lavender and tea tree oil and spray it over my hair, jacket and just clothing, apparently they dislike the odor… there are other ess. oils as well.

It’s because I was an avid hobby herbalist and did often my own products and have books and I used it when doing herbal walks. I had a huge backyard with old trees and had to mow grass, so when season came mowing under trees I used this spray, bugs also don’t like it. I also planted or worked in the yard and garden and we had the small biting ants. I’d put in summer coconut oil on my ankle and lower legs and my lower arms, they couldn’t crawl well on the oil…

Wish I knew about the dangers of ticks back in 2016? or maybe even before that. My daughter was diagnosed with Lyme disease, and it has caused a lot of damage in her health. We spend thousands of dollars in all kinds of medicines (herbal included/acupuncture) but the damage is done. We used to go camping plus she used to go to rock concerts and sit in the grass. She wore shorts and sandals and one day she got bitten by what we knew was a tick, but Dr. insisted it was mosquitoes bite although it resembled a tick bite since no medicines were given to her and by the time she was diagnose with Lyme disease the damage in her body had progressed a lot. There’s also Thalia (married to Tommy Motola) that right now is doing really bad because Lyme disease is incurable if not treated on time. Thalia’s diagnose took a long time to be diagnosed, and I read that she was in the Hospital admitted for 3 weeks because she couldn’t even walk. I haven’t heard much from her health lately and I pray she’s finally recovering (her older sister died recently from cancer)… 
PS. I will do the rosemary tick natural repellent since I have the ingredients. Thanks for sharing that article is very useful.

What is it?Anosognosia, is a temporary forgetfulness, according to French Professor, Bruno Dor, of the Institute of Memory and Alzheimer’s Disease (IMMA), La Pitié-Salpêtrière, Hospital, in Paris.
He addresses the subject in a rather reassuring way:
“If anyone is aware of his memory problems --he does not have Alzheimer’s.”
- I forget the names of families;
- I do not remember where I put some things;
It often happens in people 60 years and older, where they complain that they lack memory.
“The information is always in the brain, it is the “processor” --that is lacking.”
This is “Anosognosia” or temporary forgetfulness.
Half of people 60 and older have some symptoms that are due to age, rather than disease.
The most common cases are:
- forgetting the name of a person;
- going to a room in the house and not remembering why we were going there;
- a blank memory for a movie title or actor\actress;
- a waste of time searching where we left our glasses or keys;
After 60 years, most people have such a difficulty, which indicates that it is not a disease, but rather a characteristic, due to the passage of years.
Many people are concerned about these oversights hence the importance of the following statement:
“Those who are conscious of being forgetful, have no serious problem of memory.”
“Those who suffer from a memory illness or Alzheimer’s --are not aware of what is happening.”
Professor Bruno Dubois, Director of IMMA, reassures the majority of people concerned about their oversights:
“The more we complain about memory loss, the less likely we are to suffer from memory sickness.”
- Now, for a little neurological test:
Only use your eyes!
1- Find the C in the table below!
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOCOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
2- If you have already found the C,
Then find the 6 in the table below.999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999969999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999
3- Now find the N in the table below.
Attention, it’s a little more difficult!MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMNMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
If you pass these three tests without difficulty:
you can cancel your annual visit to the neurologist.
your brain is in perfect shape, inspite of your age!
you are far from having any relationship with Alzheimer’s.
So, would you like to share this with your senior friends?
It can also reassure them.
@frustratedwriter, @jadecloud88,
About Anosognosia, here’s a recent article from 
The National Library of Medicine. A reply from someone I shared the above info. Keep in mind this article is focused on:
The condition in stroke patient’s right hemisphere.
Link: (*❛‿❛)→ 
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK513361/#:~:text=Anosognosia%20is%20a%20neurological%20condition,in%20right%20hemisphere%20stroke%20patients.
“Intro:”(*❛‿❛)→👇🏾
Anosognosia is a neuropsychiatric condition in which one is in denial–unconsciously–and unaware of an apparent disability or deficit. The French neurologist, Joseph Babinski, first described anosognosia when highlighting the obliviousness of those afflicted with left hemiplegia, in 1914.[1] Anosognosia can manifest transdiagnostically as it is extant in both psychiatric and neurologic disorders. Most often, it precipitates in the setting of structural damage–from ischemic strokes–to the right parietal cortex. It also has utility as a psychiatric construct used to describe a patient’s lack of insight.[2]
If you’ve not had a stroke, this article is not applicable.

Hard to say for what age this condition would affect, right? Or that it applies only to stroke patients? But yes, you’re right about that article’s qualifier.
My 40-something friend was “diagnosed” with this condition last year (and the first I’ve heard of it too), though she’s still not certain this is it since second and third opinions aren’t as certain to give such a diagnosis. I sure hope it isn’t as bad for her…

My oldest daughter who lives in Florida no longer can enjoy going to the Beach. There are more death than the Media is allowing the Public to know about, and that is why tourist keep risking their life (a young boy was the most recent victim) he had a small cut and the flesh eating bacteria killed him within hours.

What brings ticks to your yard?
Wild animals such as deer, raccoons, and small rodents can bring ticks into your yard. Birds transport ticks as well. If you have a bird feeder or bird bath in your yard, it can attract ticks as the birds will bring and drop them off, letting them thrive on your property.
What attracts ticks to homes?
American dog ticks, in particular, are attracted to the heat and carbon dioxide emanating from houses, and are sometimes encountered en masse literally climbing the outside walls and screened windows probing for a way indoors. Dec 20, 2018
